DOGS are a man's best friend - but for big cat lover Rafael Villafane it's his pet JAGUAR. Rafael, 50, has been caring for Maya, his 175 pound feline for the past four years. The music producer feeds Maya, who loves gorging on 2.5kg of organic turkey, fish, beef, deer and wild boar every day. To keep her fit and active he takes her for walks and even visits restaurants with Maya by his side. The pair often visit the park near his home in Mexico City, Mexico, where he walks the huge predator and lets her swim in the river. After her exercise, Rafael loves visiting his favourite restaurant and ties Maya on her lead around a tree - just feet away from the tables and other customers. At home, Rafael plays with Maya - tumbling and wrestling with her on the ground, to keep her in shape and stimulated. Maya lives in a custom enclosure built on the hillside of Rafael's home. Her living quarters cost Rafael about $50,000 and took nearly a year to build. Rafael's is one of several stories which appears in new Animal Planet series Preposterous Pets which starts on Animal Planet UK at 8pm on April 3.

Most people have a guard dog, but this bloke is on a whole different level, R.I.P. anyone who tries to break into his house
Yea they will for sure be shredded beef
Jaguar is not as territorial as dogs and it won't attack if isn't provoked first. And they don't know how to alert people nearby so they would make an absolute bad guardian
@@lynch8067 uhh... I can't speak for everyone but if I were say, breaking into a house and I saw that in the hallway growling and coming towards me I'd GTFO fr.
@Hunnid P Are we talking about guarding properties or talking about animals capabilities? I am obviously didn't argue which one is stronger or scarrier, I specifically pointing out why Jaguar would be shitty as protecting your stuffs compare to dogs. And would an intruder smart enough to kick into the dog face while breaking in so it can alert people nearby? The jaguar wouldn't give 2 shts ad long as they are safe and untouched. That's why they trained and chose dogs over any type of animal. So I don't see the point of bringing strength and agressiveness over this discussion. And if you think you can kick the dog in the face and get away with it. Try it on my 54kg Dogo Argentino, I dare you mf
@Samarjit Maan that’s because it’s a house cat, not a Jaguar
DAMN
That jaguar is crazy interacting with humans like that!
Doesn't it know that humans are the most dangerous animals in the world?
so true
+Rocket Grunt
Nah, most of us are domesticated enough. Now, if it encounters a wild human - then it'd be dangerous.
Just imagine the wild human with the fluorescent orange neon hat, forest camo, plaid shirt and no teeth. A terrible monster, I assure you.
MR Zoetmulder I'm concern about it as well 😕 But this guy really seems to love her... Well, keeping her tied up is the only way to en sure safety both for visitors and the leopard herself, but the other stuff... They seem to get along 💖 It's so sweet 💖
@MR Zoetmulder- U R Correct Sir!!
Humans act by feeling animals act by instinct
I truly do hope you realize how lucky you are to spend your life with such gorgeous animal :)
+Josip Čondić Jurkić Just by saying about jaguar - "hanging out with your own kind" proves your lack of knowledge about animals.
This animal was BORN in CAPTIVITY. It doesn't miss jungle, it doesn't know jungle. All it knows is a life like this. Don't compare being kept in captivity and properly cared for - not being kept in a tiny cage behind metal bars - to human in prison, this is primivite beyond measure.
+Josip Čondić Jurkić
3x dimwit in one message. How dull... Why don't you come up with something more original?
Sadly, I'm not the one who is a dimwit here. I'm glad you believe in what you claim, though ;)
Again, as every foolish person who knows everything in the world, YOU'RE COMPARING ANIMALS TO PEOPLE. This is being dumb at it's finest, even though in most of cases it happens because people love animals so much. I, too, like everyone at start, did that. I learned I was wrong because I accepted the fact I was wrong and naive.
Continue comparing animals to people, and responsible owner to locking children in basements, it will sure take you far, master Allwise. But before you do, I suggest you'd study animal psychology a bit. But I suppose you know better than for example the old director of zoo, Jan Żabiński, whom I base much of my knowledge on, better, anyways.
Lack of satisfying reproductive 'urges' or simply neutering an animal is for sure abusing it? No words...
Another possibly PETA-related animal 'lover' who takes it to the extreme level not even knowing much.
Who said that jaguar won't ever breed? Who said it wasn't neutered?
Do you have a dog or a cat? Then get rid of it as soon as possible. Because domesticated or not - guess what, it still has those urges, just as strong as this jaguar! They want to mate, they want to hunt/kill.
What do you do when your cat is in heat, then? Of course release her so she can run away and mate with the very first stray she stumbles upon? Or do the wise and keep her in your apartment/ neuter her as soon as her heat ends? Oh, wait, this is for sure abuse at it's finest... Because the poor animal totally knows/realizes it's ovaries/balls have been cut off. All the poor billions of cats and dogs...
It's so sad that the first example I can come up with - Jan Żabiński - disagrees with you... Well, I suppose he was a dimwit! After all he only worked with all possible exotic animals, including big cats, for a few decades.
Yes, this animal is no pet. And not because it's 'wild' - but because, tamed or not, it can and it WILL kill people. Sooner or later, in most cases. This itself is wrong exactly for that reason - the jaguar will eventually attack/kill, and it will end up put down. The first comment I wrote just before I even learned that about big cats - that they can never be tamed enough to feel safe around them.
And that's the reason it should be not kept as a pet. That and only that. Other than that, for rich people with plentys of space and right conditions - why not? How's it worse than zoo? In my humble opinion - thousands of times better. Because no zoo animal comes out for walks in the forest.
People keep animals as pet, wild and domesticated, this is the basic of our "URGES" you so love to mention. They did, they do, and always will. Why does it surprise and anger you? It's an urge after all.
'Wild' animals can be perfect pets for many people. And if we didn't start keeping and breeding WILD animals, we wouldn't have DOMESTICATED animals - because they all come from wild creatures. Dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets.
Animals can be perfectly fine and 'happy' in captivity. If kept properly. You claiming they can't be, just proves your ignorance and lack of knowledge you're so bitter about me apparently having. Yes, sadly I have more experience and knowledge than you, your comments prove it. Another typical YT user who thinks he knows everything in the world and rages when someone disagrees with him. You don't understand how animals 'work' and you refuse to learn. Simple.
As every animal 'lover' who lacks knowledge, you will claim living in the wild is ALWAYS better than living in captivity. You probably think that's because "the animal can go where it wants to", while in captivity it can't? Too bad you don't know how wrong you are ^^
I'd suggest you checking why it's so easy for hunters and their dogs to corner a hare and make it go where they want it to go so they can get a clear shot. Or what will in most of cases a poor animal "prisoner" do when it manages to escape it's prison.
Do you think it would do much better in the wild because it could breed when it wanted to? How about a tiny, sweet example of how most of animal offsprings end up in the wild? When a mother cannot take care of all of them and some starve? Some are killed during their first hunt, or crippled and trying for days/weeks to follow their mother and siblings, to eventually fail and die?
Some are simply slaughtered in front of their mother by a male who wants to mate with that female? Have you ever seen a lioness, who just got her cubs murdered by a new male, run around, calling her cubs, hoping they're somewhere out there and will answer to her? Calling for DAYS, non stop, until she gives up, goes into heat and mates with the very killer of her cubs?
Or a female zebra going nuts to protect her newborn calf from a male who kicks it dead in front of her very eyes?
How many human women would willingly and happily have sex with a man who came and murdered their children, and carry on with their life, content with how it is?
Have you seen documentaries about monkeys and their offspring killed by a male? How they 'mourned' over their offspring's body for hours/days, refusing to let it go? Is it better? Does it make the animal 'happier'?
Do you think every animal in the wild can breed? That it can't be born infertile or can't find a fitting mate? Does it mean it's life will be a misery? No. It will carry on like any other animal. The heat/season will be gone and it will live on. Without horrible mental scars to change it's life forever.
Breeding doesn't make an animal 'happier'. It's a basic instinct of survival and indeed a goal for many, but can be simply gotten rid of by neutering an animal - or providing it with a mate.
Living in the wild is not 'better' than living in proper captivity. A life of a prey is constant stress, fear and death, often being crippled and dying for weeks.
Life of a predator is too a struggle for food. One mistake, one wound and an animal will starve slowly, unable to hunt and provide itself food. Or die from infection in agony. Or from old age when it simply has no teeth and too is forced to starve. No one will help it there. Is it better for the animal? Does it feel happier that way? If animals could speak, I wouldn't be sure of an answer. Life in the wild is better than life in small, empty cage with metal bars, with a bowl of meath from slaughterhouse. But it's a struggle every day - from birth, to death.
Yes, I too am deeply hurt when I see lions and panthers in cages not much bigger - or smaller - than my room. Metal bars around, one single log as entertaiment. This is sad, heartbreaking and should be forbidden. But captivity isn't always the same. It's foolish, immature and stupid to say every captivity is bad.
In proper captivity, animal is provided with space, activities, entertaiment right for it's species, and FOOD.
If it's ill - it will be treated. If it's old - extra care will be added. Again, in PROPER captivity - such one exists.
I'd gladly throw a few examples of difference between animals in captivity and humans in captivity on your plate, and what exactly makes animals suffer in captivity, especially predators, but I'm afraid I'd just waste my time and keyboard. You know better.
I'd suggest you giving Jan Żabiński's books a try, if only they come in english/whatever your language is version. Or any other good exotic animal zoologist and zootechnician's books. Maybe this would change your point of view a little bit and make you hold on a little bit when it comes to insulting people.
Have a nice day.
+raal007 And I hope your relationship will last forever. Ignore the hateful comments of you not taking good care of her. I too have/had and take/took care of foxes rescued from fur farms and too am getting comments of how I should "release them to the precious wild". People just don't understand.
Most of cases of big cat and human friendship end very badly, but I sure hope you will be an exception, and that you're taking better care of her than many zoos would where she'd be stuck in a tiny cage, dying of animal's worst captivity enemy - boredom. There seems to be a lot of understanding between you two, you seem to know what you're doing, and if so far nothing happened, I hope it will be enough to don't let any truly bad accident happen, ever.
+raal007 You indeed do have a point here, friend. Maybe that's indeed the case.
I wish you and Maya all the luck and long frienship to the very end, Happy Valentines Day to you and her :)
Do you have a Tumblr, or Facebook, or any site/blog I could check now and then to see how she's doing?
WHAT???? This Jaguar gets to live a life without fear or worry. He is TOTALLY spoiled. He gets free food and play and affection 24/7. This is NOT the life of being in prison. No one's forcing him to be there with this guy. The Jaguar WANTS to be with him... because he likes all the positive attention. No cat in the wild feels so free just to lay around and relax all day like that... believe me. Ugh
My crystal ball tells me that this Owner does not have TOO MANY BREAK-INS at their house....
I bullet it's all it needs
Resident Evil Fun without it you're dead bud humans are nothing to these creatures proven in the fact you need weapons to properly defend yourself
DIOSpeedDemon 😂😂
Resident Evil Fun if you can hit it the first time yeah
Resident Evil Fun Far cry says otherwise
She's beautiful.
Cats are not dogs
Please do not assume it's gender with it's consent.
Sanju Singh Mma hehehe I can’t omg.
@paulo Almeida True.
That jag behaves better than most cats
I understand that cheetahs can be raised from cubs and effectively turned into 100-pound house cats; that's a notable exception among wild animals, and big cats in particular. I have never heard of anyone even attempting to raise a jaguar as a "pet." Jaguars are big, strong, powerful cats -- pound for pound, one of the strongest, and considerably stronger than the typical mountain lion/puma. The girl shown in this video appears kind of smallish, but she's still built like a tank, with jaws that could crush the skull of most mammals. It appears the guy in the video has a great relationship with his cat, but I would never seriously consider a jaguar as any sort of animal to keep in captivity.
They've been doing it in central and south America for slightly over a millennia now.
So?
Ego sum homo vespertilionem Mountain Lion attacks are common ,never heard of a Jaguar attacking or even stalking a human so they would be the preferred pet. Cheetahs make awful pets as they are extremely skittish and high strung.
Ego sum homo vespertilionem yeah but it's clearly not a normal jaquar. Probably has a screw loose somewhere that makes it prefer human company.
There are exceptions in every species. I think Sasha might just be the strange one.
Edward Fogarty Cheetas have been raised as pets In Egypt for thousends years . It's said that they are Cat Hardware on a Dog Software .... The very very few that don't ambush for instance .... You can turn your back to a cheetah ....
To a Jag? Mehh...
As a cat owner, sometimes I get small scratches and bites just playing around with him. He's not really trying to hurt me, it just happens. Kitty has his claws and isn't neutered. With a big cat like a jaguar, I'd imagine the same thing could happen but on a much larger scale
Yeah that’s what makes me nervous about ppl owning these big cats as pets. No way I’d be playing with my bare hands with this gurl, I would give her toys to rip up or something lol. Maybe a giant cat teaser
A jaguar has 2000 pounds per square inch of force in it's jaw. It could remove your hand without even trying.
@@yerman0564 True, but that's only if it decides to bite you out of anger...even play biting or scratching with a big kitty like this would hurt eek
@@yerman0564 more like 800PSI.
I think jaguars are much more aware of the kind of damage they can do, house cats just dont really care
I think that's wonderful. ...she is beautiful. .
She's beautiful.
If I don't have a wife by 30, I'm going to dedicate my life to a Jaguar 😊
Best luck
please update us with a video if that ever happen haha. Love jaguars, beautiful giant kitties.
Why not a cougar😉😉
@Hot Bullet Streaming That'd be a beautiful day, who knows - life's mysterious 😁 My intuition has been telling me something similar today, so, it's interesting you commented that.
@Hot Bullet Streaming I wonder what would happen if he gets married on his 30th birthday.
Everyone here is jealous that they don't have a pet jaguar
MEE TOO!
Including u 😂😂😂
Nah. I'm more jealous of the guy next door with the shiny new Jaguar (vehicle).
@@bursegsardaukar Jaguars are shitty cars, there's a reason they have a horrible resale value..
I would love to have that cat though
Same .... I would walk my jaguar every day and cuddle with it ... maybe one day
That is a beautiful jaguar!!! :-)
She's so gorgeous :-) what a sweetheart :-)

it's just a big kitty,it's behavior is really close to a common house cat,besides that it doesn't meow as much
and its very deadly!
very rare for a domesticated Jaguar. They are notoriously temperamental - except it seems this one.
Lol some people are calling the jaguar fat or obese. I think the majority of them tend to be like this, as they're stocky build. Anyways I loooove jaguars. 😍
They are stocky and muscular. That fat on the belly isn't what they look like in the wild.
They're probably fat themsekves.
They r but this ones definitely on the chunky said even for a jaguar
@@elcoyote9410 So how many jaguars in the wild have you seen bubba????
The jaguar is obese - I work in a zoo, spending most of the time with our Jaguars. They aren't meant to look like this. Sure, it might be living a comfortable life, but being overweight is even worse for animals than for humans.
Jaguars are beautiful
The reason humans can have wild animal companions is that mammals have the same emotional bonding mechanisms as humans. If you raise any mammal from birth it is going to view you as its mother, protector, nurturer, and will completely trust you.
That's not true at all. Some people think you can domesticate any wild animal if you raise it from birth. Definitely not the case with predators. Wild Cats are dangerous apex predators that can turn on a human in a split second. It's not 100% you will be attacked if you own one, but it happens far too often. Not surprising.
@@butchvito the recorded attacks come mostly from circus and “tamers” there is a reason as to why these animals attack.
@@butchvito I sort of agree with you I guess, but if we go by your logic we shouldn't even be raising our own offspring since how many dangerous predators we make every year.
@@lalathedonna5223 Yeah if a person is a shitty parent you shouldn't be raising any children. There are parents who murder their own children so don't get any ideas. If you're comparing your own human offspring to a wild predator that is a fantastic comparison...
Normal feline behaviour is to head butt as a sign of affection. And you can see this Jaguar doing this at the beginning of the video. She really likes her keeper.
i wanna hug it
and a little bite as well :)
Id risk everything to pet.
That jaguar definitely has that house cat bod. 😂
I don't think I could have a casual back yard meeting with a Jaguar roaming around...
I'd be too busy petting and playing with her.
Beautiful big cat
It such a joy to see them so friendly
Jaguar is beautiful but need some diet! LOL!!!
Go tell it to her face
Don't care about it, maybe ya need?
Better to be fat and slow, you might outrun it if it goes crazy...
She is very sensitive. Last time someone said that to her, they caught her with her paw down her throat
She's a female maybe from pregnancy she's fat
Nice jaguar, but she seems a little husky, might have take her to your local track and let her do some laps lol
zoomdirt2 if you dont want it to prey on you keep it well fed and fat so it wont even think about hunting
Someone else said that the cat does not has too much weight on themself. Jaguars just have a stocky build apparently.
@@eiffelviolet yeah, stocky. Not chubby like this lady.
@@eiffelviolet wild jaguars don't have this amount of fat on them, they're muscular, agile, killing machines. Also even if they were, in a captive environment they don't need the extra fat in times of scarcity so there's no need for it, the same way humans don't need extra body fat anymore as it only presents risks like joint problems or diabetes.
What a gorgeous beautiful sweet heart. The bond between you both is pure love & adoration for each other. Bless you both. Amazing story. 🖐 from Australia.
Imagine that jag being protective over Rafael. I'd feel bad for anyone who messes with him
Wow what a gorgeous girl she is, I'd love to have a pet Jaguar that is house tame and gives me love like she does to her owner.
Will you people shut up about calling the jaguar fat? You're so shallow and insensitive. Beautiful jaguars have curves. [/sarcasm]
Haha good one
Faton Maliqi dude like seriuosly she has a perfect body for a jaguar. Idk what the bloody hell is wrong with people now
Unrealistic beauty standards
It is fat !
I THOUGHT THAT WAS BEN FUCKING STILLER IN THE THUMBNAIL
LOL
She's certainly really well fed, that must help.
She is so beautiful, que bonita balam :)
Se llama Maya y esta un poco gordita... lol her name is Maya and she is a little fat.
That cat is really well behaved. Jaguars and Leopards tend to be more aggressive then Lions and Tigers. That's why most big cat owners don't keep them.
How could you not love a jaguar 🥰 these cats have the fewest amounts of attacks on people of all the big cats. Which is a very good thing.
Not only that there are many stories of jaguars guiding lost children home from the jungle or protecting people
Woooooow. . . . . I never seen a Domesticated Jaguar before. . . Holy shit, I wouldn't come uninvited to your house thats for sure. One bite. . your done son.
I don't approve of domesticating wildlife but this truly is beautiful. She has the combination of wild domestication and is ALIVE. Away from poachers or angry farmers she is thriving. Wish I could visit you and feel that thrill of hope 🤗🐾🐾🤗

@@ronen124 I doubt it. Humans are not jaguars' typical food. And when you raise and feed one ...you won't get eat by it.

I believe 100% that if a person is willing to give an animal food+water+shelter+space and attention and to take the responsibility for its actions and take it to the vet a couple of times that they should keep the pet whether its wild or not.
Nope, not when these animal can and will be a threat to its neighbors and other himans
The end was the greatest part lol
True
see I can completely imagine this being me if my cats would get bigger she acts like a house cat its adorable 😊
This is my favourite Jag on the internet! I like every movie with this pet!
My dream exotic pet
Did you know that jaguars are one of the felinoids that has the 2nd strongest jaws, after the spotted hyena being in 1st place as a felinoid with the strongest jaws of the animal kingdom?
Felinae not Felinoids bruh
You mean feliformia
Strongest bite relative to their size.
@@theshermantanker7043 i strongly disagree with them being classed as a feliform
Beauty!!!
I love jaguars too much for this video 😂
That's an absolutely gorgeous Jaguar.
Awww! She's so cute! :3 The ending is adorable. That guy has lots of guts but then again, I guess it's all on how he treats the jaguar. If he doesn't abuse the big kitty, she won't hurt him. I think she genuinely loves and respects Rafael. Every time a video like this comes up, people always gotta make the goddamn comments of how the animal will one day attack the owner. Stop! It's a possibility just as a house cat or dog doing the same, there's no need to bring it up all the time; how immature. That thought never crosses my mind, though. I trust that animals are more civilized sometimes than humans and won't backstab you.
Maybe...they can sometimes whether trained or untrained they will sometimes attack. Remember, once a wild animal, always a wild animal.
@@madhavilanka7787 not exactly if that was the case, then they wouldn’t have became domesticated
@@madhavilanka7787 lol no, wild is wild. Tame is tame.
I have always dreamt of owning my jaguar too. I love her.🇬🇾
Beautiful.You are a very lucky man to have such a gorgeous companion that is a Jaguar ❤️
😘😘😘😘😘 the way this jaguar is playing
what a beautiful animal
People saying it’s wrong, Our Maya ancestors were proven to have kept jaguars in the home with us!! We domesticated both dogs & big cats, so he’s just doing what our ancestors have done!! They are also a sacred animal and should be protected. Love to see it 🇲🇽
stunning, she is so beautiful
This guy is out of his mind. I hope that cat never gets mad at him or he is done for.
She is beautiful
God dammit now I want a jaguar..:L
That's beautiful...the friendship.
That jaguar sees more at ease in the car than my dog
Wow, i love this video. I don't like seeing wild animals kept as pets or in captivity. unless they have to. In this case she has to, but its great that she still gets to play in the wild and is allowed to wander round the streets etc. Never seen this before...Bet lots of jaguars wouldn't mind this lifestyle if they knew about it!
Tigers like swimming more than any of the other big cats. After them, jaguars enjoy water the second most.
other way around
dflet03 What makes you say that?
Tigers actually have webbed paws made specifically for swimming.
Tigers have webbed paws? Well when I've seen the numbers for how fast they can swim, I've been amazed. That might explain why. Can they really swim at 30 kph? That doesn't seem feasible, but that's what they say.
Обожаю ягуара это моя любимая кошка
Big fat gorgeous cat.
Big sweet kitty needs to go on a diet!
you didnt see a "wild" jaguar lmao pretty sure if it was wild it would be hissing and growling at you
Jaguars dont hiss they roar.
+raal007 it's always cringy when someone tries to tell you your wrong and you know your right lol
Lol exactly what I said it’s not a wild jaguar is it 😂😂
Probably the most beautiful cat I've ever seen.
Jaguar is very beautiful! Congratulations!
For people bitching about domestication. If the cub was abandoned, and a human is the the only option to take care of it, then maybe it's not soo bad. This jaguar gets fed and decent exercise and attention, it's not being physically abused. Don't like it, Tough Shit and get fucked like everyone else.
This is my dream pet. If I get there one day, and have the money and expertise needed, a jaguar and an elephant is my life goal.
Until then... it's parrots, dogs and reptiles.
Frida Nyberg don't do it mate these animals are not good pets
Hahahaa,dear,have you ever seen an elephant???
Not so much an elephant, but big cats are ducking beautiful
Jaguars are one of the most dangerous of the big wild cats. It may be too much for you and miserable for the cat. Only orphans should be cared for by humans and they do grow up. Some could be released into the wild if you have the knowledge and help from experienced people. Don't count on one having a good enough temperament either, they like all cats have different personalities. This guy was lucky.
Frida Nyberg Just get a house Cat instead, You'll be safe and happy, trust me. All Cat's are belong to one felines family, so you'll find similarity among them
Woooow I fell in love with this jag ...
Gorgeous creature !!!
Jaguars are my favorite big cat.
Is she beautiful or what?, easily eye catching and stunning.
i would help the jaguar feel at home by having a large outdoor room with incan relics, and temples
Beanmachine91 no Incans in Mexico, only mayans.
💖💖💖 We LOVE YOU 🥀🌺Maya🌺🥀 dear ~ you are Beautiful and Precious and Majestic ✨
The Strongest bite radius of all the big cats! How we bite into an apple is probably like them biting into our skulls 💀😨😬😂
One bite to the neck and you're finished.
Except Jags go for the skull
CRaptor Hey...there are worse ways of dying. Burning alive, being slowly beheaded by ISIS sadists, terminal bone cancer, being inspected by the USDA (just kidding). All levity aside, having your temple pierced through by jaguar or tiger teeth doesn't seem too bad in comparison.
Yep. Though actually she'd be more likely to bite someone else who got too close to her owner than her owner himself, he's probably quite safe with her there.
A Ibrahim highest of all mammals

Beautiful jaguar.God bless jaguar and love animals always.
I've always wondered why there are humans that don't believe that an animal like this can actually be friends with a human without ever harming him/her.
Then I realized that it is because of our human nature, humans are backstabbers by nature, so normally they think that every other animal is like them, and that makes them lose their trust in everything.
But animals aren't actually vindictive or backstabbers. And personally I'd put my trust into any animal that knows me well enough than into another person.
I agree with you 1000% Very perceptive observation and so true.
I totally agree, just want to add that people consider wild animals only as danger killing machines, even friendly animals like in the video. They convinced that friendship is unreal and animal one day kill their keeper for sure. Sadly, but there were many incidents that confirmed this opinion. The reason I think is that many people take wild animals as pets just for show and fun, they don't communicate and understand them, in such way incident is inevitable. But society doesn't interested in relations between animal and keeper, they just continue think that these animals live only to kill and can't have any feelings.
P.S. I really tired of reading comments like "this man will be eaten by this cat one day", I just believe that this is impossible without serious reason.

Exactly, even dog owners get bitten by their pet dogs, but if those dog owners know how their dog feels and why did it bit them, they will almost always say that it was their fault that provoked the dog into biting them.
Same thing for every animal. As you said, if you know how to communicate with it, know it's wants and needs in the moment, there wouldn't be any problem.....it's all about mutual understanding.
umm excuse you? dogs have thousands of domestication behind their backs. jaguars, on the other hand, are and will for always be wild animals. these animals have millions of wild instinct in them, and when they decide to snap at their owners, the cat will either end up in a tiny cage, or will be euthanized because ''omg it's so dangerous''. can't believe you can compare a domestic animal to a wild apex predator. y'all should be ashamed of yourselves, jaguars do not belong as somebody's pet. you know what else humans are? selfish. they thing that, omg this animal is pretty, that they can go right ahead and keep it as a pet. BECAUSE LIFE IS JUST AS BEAUTIFUL AS DISNEY, RIGHT??? OF COURSE THE JAGUAR WON'T SNAP IF YOU BOTH ''LOVE'' EACH OTHER WE ALL LIVE IN THE DISNEY MOVIE BAMBI HAHA.

Do you think domestic dogs and cats have always been domesticated?
Do you think that they were born like that millions of years ago?
Of course not!
That jaguar looks a bit over weight
Agreed
+Tommy Jeffries Fat because it does not get the proper excersize or diet it needs.

I would give anything to have that life ❤ what a beautiful creation
Onça muito bonita, queria ter um bicho desse.
Jaguars are absolutely fascinating. Was she injured or abandoned in her youth? Couldn't find that in the video description or the comments I read.
Zach V it was a gift from his friend. The jaguar was a few months
I like jaguars, especially jaguar cubs. They're su cute❤❤❤
1:47 the way he keeps looking at the other guy, like,. am I impressing you yet?
Why do these people own this Big Cat?
Because they love the beatiful things,so do i.
It's funny that every big cat owner says something like mine is different they won't attack me. But in time, it will eat you.
Tiger Expert i love you. btw, did you spare some bits of ash for me to smoke as well?
Aysegul Kafali
Oh, I definitely did bro. We'll smoke them together, love you too. :')
***** Haha, cool guy! funny joke as I'm already one.
Tiger Expert Probably a few are actually tame enough to never attack their owner but it's foolish to make that assumption. It only takes one time and you're dead. Especially with Tigers, sometimes they'll play with you and not even know they are hurting you because they are such strong animals.

In most cases they will play with you, and the harder you try the make them stop, the harder they will try to prevent that. Eventually probably killing you. The more you try to get it off, the more it's going to hold you where it wants. And you aren't going to win in the strength game as it takes nine men just to control a tiger.
There was an account of a captive tiger tame enough to lick its trainer's hand, but then tore a wild lion to pieces.
Imádom, gyönyörű ez a jaguár :)))
I love her! ❤️❤️❤️ She is gorgeous.
The cats name (Jaguar) means "One who kills in a single bound" Why the fuck would you want it as a pet.
?
Because is't cute and looks amazing?
Yeah Jaguars are Mexican cats
Manuel Silva There actually aren't too many in Mexico. Mostly South America.
Actually they were originally found throughout the Americas even up into the states.
Azteca sought them as deities jaguars have alot off history in Mexico
+LuLu6214 jaguars have a lot of history in Mexico especially in native times with the Aztec
Manuel Silva Yup, they are amazing creatures and for some time had a very large occupation area. Personally one of my favorite big cats.
That cat is VERY well fed 😆.
I LOVE IT! Thank you for the video!
